Tottenham have been linked with a move for Marcus Edwards for a little while now.
The winger is a Tottenham academy graduate, and with Spurs currently struggling to meet their homegrown quota, it has been suggested that re-signing Edwards could be a smart move.
It was reported last week that Spurs were looking at Edwards, and speaking on his YouTube channel, Alasdair Gold has provided the latest on this transfer saga.
According to Gold, Spurs are still keeping an eye on Edwards, but, the last time he checked, no official approach had happened.
Tottenham yet to approach Marcus Edwards
Gold shared what he’d heard about Edwards the last time he checked on this situation.
“From my knowledge, I know that Spurs are at least keeping an eye on the situation of Marcus Edwards as a potential option,” Gold said.
“I’m not saying it’s a move that is definitely going to happen and no approach has been made to Sporting as of yet or when I last checked in it hadn’t, but he’s being considered as a potential solution to that problem.”
Edwards would be a smart signing
Spurs haven’t approached Edwards yet, but don’t be too surprised if there is movement on this front at some point this summer.
Indeed, Edwards would be a very logical signing for Tottenham.
Not only is this a talented player with tons of talent, he’s homegrown and he’s available at a cut-price for Spurs due to their sell-on clause.
Everything adds up to suggest that this would be a logical signing for Tottenham, and it wouldn’t be a shock at all if Spurs did advance on this one once the transfer window is officially open.
Edwards could be back in north London six years on from his initial departure from Spurs as a 20-year-old.
